The difference is this time the limit is really reached. In the telephone network the line is digitally encoded with 64 kbit/s. With a clever trick it was possible to make most of this speed available. But you can not squeeze more into the line than the 64 kbit/s that the backbone network is allocating to a single POTS line.
I had expected that we had reached the speed limit with 33 kbit/s and was proven wrong one more time.
